[65342] Fukui Brewery Kominka | Niigata City Niigata Pref. | Traditional Japanese Houses for sale

Fukui Brewery Kominka

Niigata City, Niigata Pref.

Located on a corner along the historic route connecting Niigata and Nagano, this 19th-century traditional house stands out despite its steel exterior. Once a combined soy sauce brewery and residence, it is unusual in that the home and workshop are integrated into one structure. Essential renovations have already been completed, allowing for immediate living. Set in Nishi-Kanku Ward—an area said to embody the essence of Niigata—the property offers a quiet yet practical location, with the nearest Shinkansen station about an hour’s drive away.

The second floor features a rare design with a corridor connecting the living area directly to the workshop. The space offers many possibilities for future use. The residence is refined, reflecting the status of its former owners, while the workshop impresses with bold timber framing and a spacious earthen floor.

Why KORYOYA houses?

The traditional Japanese houses listed on KORYOYA are all built before 1950 with the traditional construction method.

The traditional method is the result of more than a thousand years of past carpenters passing down their efforts and wisdoms. As no new houses can be built with the traditional construction method under current law, the high craftsmanship is in danger of becoming a dying art.
